Recent Tutoring Session Reviews

★★★★★

"We went over factoring equations and setting them equal to zero to solve. For example w^2=13w, we set the equation equal to zero then factored the equation prior to solving. Therefore, w^2-13w=0, so w(w-13)=0. Then you set each portion of the factoring equation equal to zero to solve. For example w=0 and w-13=0; therefore w=13. The answer in our answer choices was written as {0,13}. In addition, we worked problems which we plotted on the graph and stated what the vertex was and line of symmetry as well as matching the graph to the equation."

★★★★★

"We reviewed 3 more state exam practice tests. We went over word problems, fractions, long division, measuring, area/perimeter, and other items covered on these tests. I tried to provide test-taking tips, and advised him to get into the habit of checking his work, checking all possible answers, writing out his work (so he doesn't make mistakes), and slowing down. He understands most of the concepts on the test."

"Student 1:
First, the student and I worked through his algebra packet for an upcoming retake test. I made sure to emphasize how to systematically use "what you know" from the wording of the problem to solve for what is being asked. We also reviewed important definitions which he will need to know for the test including vertex (and how to find it), y-intercept and x-intercept, domain and range. I encouraged him to look over his review packet and to let me know if he had any questions.
Student 2:
I worked with the student on balancing chemical equations and predicting reactions. We began by reading through the write-up I had created which detailed, step-by-step, a strategy for balancing equations that related it to her algebraic principles. Additionally, we spent some time discussing strategies for predicting reactions and I gave her some rules of thumb to help in this regard. I was glad to see that she felt much more comfortable identifying and balancing these equations, and I encouraged her to email me any questions she may have."

"We are still dealing with differentiation, but this time the focus was on optimization problems. The student seems comfortable with taking derivatives but struggles to come up with the relevant formula for the problem. This is a difficult section, and in general, the only way to get better at translating from word problems into equations is to practice them. Math equations are like a separate language, and in order to get better with the language, one simply needs to practice correctly. Thus, with practice, I feel that he can master this material in time for his upcoming test. "

★★★★★

"The student has a quiz tomorrow on trigonometric functions and the unit circle. We went over the main points and she is going to ask her teacher on some topics she was unsure on. We also went over a little bit of AP Bio and her past test. "

★★★★★

"Today the student and I covered phonemic awareness with words such as says, story, week, once, it, and still. There are certain sounds that she must learn. Her reading comprehension was stellar. She was positive, smiled often, and enjoyed working with me. She found that challenges were the right level of difficulty. Strategies included choral reading and using contextual clues. I am leaving them with certain sight words to practice. I think we built a lot of confidence together this session. "

★★★★★

"We covered the differences between experimental and observational studies, interpretation of the marginal error, types of sampling, and null hypotheses. I guided the student to what types of words signify observational and experimental studies and reworded definitions to make them easier to comprehend. He caught on very quickly."

★★★★★

"The student completed her final multiplication project by designing an exercise game in which she had to calculate the rate of calories burned per time spent exercising. She had a lot of fun designing the game and I helped her understand how she could allocate the minutes of her routine differently to have the character burn more or fewer calories. "

★★★★★

"The student's homework was finding percentages of a certain number. She has a good grasp on this as far as knowing how to set up the problems. She knows that she must set up as a proportion problem and then cross multiply in order to find the missing number. "

★★★★★

"We worked on area and volume. The student understood the formulas and knew how to use them. The only trouble she had dealt with was advanced applications and conversions of measurements. It only took a quick review before she got the hang of it. We went through examples to make sure she had no additional issues. We spent the rest of the session going over test corrections."

★★★★★

"The client wanted help preparing for his final exam in introductory statistics. We continued with basic probability concepts and did some examples from his study slides. We created some lists of basic formulas and made sure that he has the definitions and examples of how to use them. We discussed the difference between independent and dependent events, defined sample space, and practiced with Venn diagrams. "
